Happy hump day everyone! I’m sorry I missed you all last week. I was busy moving and getting settled into the new digs. While moving is certainly a gigantic pain in the tushy, my aches were softened by blasting music and singing along to everything from old school Mariah Carey to L7. Now, I get to share more great female musicians with you today. Again, I’m starting with some of my favorites of all time and then heading into some newer territory.
